For some reason it doesn't work for me in my desktop. Xorg (probably)
deletes it as soon as I start X (via kdm). And although it survives kdm/X
start in my laptop, it's deleted there as well sometimes. I have to
investigate yet when and how it happens.

I'm not 100% sure about xserver 1.3, but 1.4 loads them automatically for
sure.

Haven't tried anything else than glxgears yet, but at least it works on my
laptop with i965GM chip. Good work!
